Here's my latest WIP: Ton's 1/24 Pioneer 10/11 spacecraft. I'm building mine as Pioneer 11, the first probe to fly by both Jupiter and Saturn.

So far, I've replaced the printed foil details with actual gold and aluminum foil. I didn't like how the kit support for the high-gain antenna turned out, so I scratchbuilt the parts from styrene rod. I've also added plastic bits to represent some of the instruments the Pioneers carried.

More to come. Biggest remaining challenge is building and mounting the two Radioactive Thermal Generators (RTGs) and their support arms.

Here is the general arrangement drawing I made, some details are missing in some views, and I modified the PE part for the struts you asked to be printeable for your model, this is the second pdf (scaling bars are cm).

I couldn't find any photo of this area which shows these in all detail, but I think I figured them out the right way. Take care, some pics available at NASA sites show a test model, which has two more struts reaching towards the HGA-side of the spacecraft bus.

One more question, Thorsten...what are the fold lines in the drawing for? Do the folded parts end up at a 90 degree angle? Something else?
